Default Oil pressure Gauge in turbo feed line...

Not sure this is the right section... But I have a question maybe someone can help me with... In the process of installing mechanical oil pressure gauge and i was curious if I can tap into my turbo feed line right where it leaves the oil pan (factory oil cooler adapter on oil pan). Planning on a AN T-fitting and splicing right in to the adapter an having 2 output lines, one to turbo and one to gauge. Would it be accurate and will it still supply enough to cool/lube the turbo?? Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Just tryin to get around fighting a line/thread adapter in the top behind the intake. Thanks-

Default

It read lower there then it would off the factory gauge. Just as long as the t fitting is not highly restrictive I dont see a problem.
